Question

Simplify the equation.

Answer 1

12x-14y
explanation:
add 5x and 8x and you get 13x−15y+2y−x−y
then subtract x from 13 x and you get 12x-15y+2y-y
then you add -15y and 2y and you get 12x-13y-y
then you subtract y from -13y and you get 12x-14y (answer).

Answer 2

Explanation:

5(x-3y)+2(4x+y)-(x+y)

5x-15y+8x+2y-x-y

5x+8x-x-15y+2y-y

13x-x-13y-y

12x-12y
